Radial Engineering StageBug SB-1 Active Acoustic Direct Box
SKU: R800011000
The design begins with standard " instrument input with a thru-put to feed your tuner or your on-stage amp. The ultra quiet active circuit at once converts the signal from high to low impedance to reduce susceptibility to noise, buffers it and then balances the signal for long runs to the PA system. And with 48 volt phantom powering, the SB-1 does not require batteries or external supply to make it work. You simply plug in and you are set to go!
The active circuit features a carefully selected 220k-ohm input impedance to eliminate problems with loading while delivering a smooth, warm sound to the audio system. This is particularly important when interfacing vintage guitars with low output pickups when should you plan to do some recording or Reamping.
The SB-1 is also equipped with a -15dB pad that reduces the input sensitivity to gracefully handle even the loudest instruments. This makes the SB-1 perfectly well suited for electric bass and keyboards. To reduce feedback, toggling the 180 polarity switch helps eliminate hot spots on stage that can cause low frequency resonance. The StageBug... small size, big heart, huge sound!

Other
We are an actual, physical, brick and mortar music store. We do have a warehouse that we ship from but generally speaking, when you buy from us online is just like coming into our store and selecting your instrument off the rack. Before we ship any instrument we thoroughly inspect, setup, photograph and pack the item (sometimes in its original box - sometimes not as per our environmental policy). If your product shows any signs of having been used, we will contact you before shipping. Occasionally if we notice a scuff or scratch on an instrument, the price will be marked down as a result. Descriptions of the flaws aren't always in the product descriptions so if you have any questions feel free to ask us via chat on our website, email or phone.
Special orders, Used/Clearance/B-Stock/Sale items, opened/unsealed new vinyl records, books, instrument strings, microphones, headphones, USB Audio Interfaces, drumsticks, instrument polishes, reeds, brass and woodwind instruments & other similar products are non-returnable. (If a return of one of these items is approved by management, a restocking fee will apply)
* Credit Card Payment Processing Companies/Banks charge a variety of network & processing fees on every credit card purchase. They no longer refund these fees when a refund is processed so we have to pay it even if we refund an order. We are no longer able to absorb these charges and have had to pass this fee to customers when an order is refunded on purchases made in-store or online with a credit card. These Credit Card Processing Fees do not apply for refunds on purchases made with cash or debit.
PayPal and Affirm financing refunds are subject to a 5% Online Purchase Processing Fee. Processing Fees are waived when a refund is loaded onto a Faders eGift Card.
This policy applies to accidental & cancelled online orders as well.
** Restocking Fee of up to 15% may apply if the product or packaging has any damage or is missing items.
When we receive a return, we inspect and test the item out to make sure it is able to be resold. As long as the item itself is still in new condition and all the original packaging is intact and in new condition there will be no restocking fee.
*** Non-refundable shipping charges - the total cost of shipping (both ways) is non-refundable. The total actual shipping charges to & from your location will be withheld from any refunds.
